sorry about having to post that, but yes, you're right, it was just for the contest. i didn't want anyone thinking i was dissing RDJ being that he is THE god of techno music. btw, do you know where he had said that the Crystal Method was a "rip-off" of the Chem. Bros.? i'd like to see it.

yeah...he complained because his name was at the bottom of the flyer, but also at the top, which he didn't notice. he was touring with crystal method and sneaker pimps...which seems odd when you compare his music to the other two.

The Crystal Method??? How can anyone possible into RDJ like the CM at the same time as theyre a whole lotta rubbish.
They have to be the most overhyped pile of crap since who knows when.
Yes, RDJ himself cant stand the CM. And I dont blame him. He was put in the unfortunate position of being their headliner on his 1997 Tour in North-America together with the Sneaker Pimps.
So I was forced to sit through their endlessly repetitive waste of time set of mindless, uncreative so called Techno until RDJ came on.
Talk about actually seeing and hearing a contrast between the GOD of the whole electronic genre and 2 arrogant keyboard clanging morons with no talent.
After seeing RDJ live I was even more convinced of CM absolute uselessness.
I dont care what RDJ says about them , but he did an interview here that very day that was featured in the article "Mad Musician or Investment banker?" and thats where he said how he avoided the CM as much as possible since he couldnt stand their music and found them to be emberassing....
Erm eh Get Busy Child...

uhh.... hmmm.... probably because we're not all dumbasses who only like ONE type of music. i know that RDJ is 1,000,000 more talented than the CM, but who gives a shit. the CM still make some cool songs.

Hey, i agree, CM aren't too bad at all
I'm keen for the new album
I like IDM as much as the next guy, but why should that stop me from enjoying other forms of music as well?
music is music, and something doesn't have to be "cutting edge" to be enjoyable

they only did a small handful of tracks of note after vegas, but vegas was enough for them to enter into some putrid feedback loop where their music gets licensed to shit and that leads people to buy it which gets it licensed even further to shit.

do you think TCM has a lot more money than RDJ? i mean, i only heard one analord track licensed on CSI, and the car games don't have any RDJ at all.

this popped into my head this morning, actually. i couldn't remember what it was called. it sounds good, for about a minute or two. then it starts to feel really repetitive. there's enough parts in the bin if you want to do your own little edit to fit the lab work montage scene.

I do like some big beat now and again but more often than not I find it a bit repetitive.

it hasn't aged well. people have gotten more ADD and pay more attention to subtle timing details (i think chris cunningham said something like this in an interview?). half the time i wonder if i still like vegas simply out of nostalgia.
put it on while jogging or on an exercise bike, though, and it makes sense again.
